A particular characteristic to this Internet site is the installation of a motorized camera located on the terrace of Rome's Palazzo Senatorio that allows a television presence. On Decembre 30, 1999 has been installed a new camera (West) adding to the first one mounted on May, 1999 (East).

These are not only LiveCams, but a sophisticated system, thanks to the technology of Canon, that allows you to possess the position of the cameras with every browser (Java compatible). You too can admire the view from Mayor Rutelli's balcony and enjoy seeing the Roman Forum, the Imperial Forums, Saint Peter in Vatican, all the way to the Coliseum. One can also rotate the telecameras and zoom on particular areas for a few seconds.
